Are you by any chance the Bill Boas I was at school with at Old Bickenham Hall and last met when I was playing Hooky from Haslar RNHospital? Colin : I was recently given what I learned was a netsuke piece. : A gemologist said it was ivory, and it appears to have a : signature. I understand this could be a recent copy. It's : a carved skull & toad. I post a quick photo at: : www.nyx.net/~wboas/netsuke.html. Would like to know more : about the symbolism and if there is anyone known in the : Denver area as an expert to have it examined. : I was not aware of netsuke before this.
